Pros

This is very much a company where the experience you'll have working there depends on who your immediate colleagues are: much of the company's work is projectized so your experience as an employee will depend on the project team you're working with. Overall the corporate leadership is open, communicates frequently, and manages a large company fairly well (a bit bureaucratic but not for its size.)

Cons

Same as the pro of working here: your employee experience depends largely on who your immediate colleagues are and what project you're working with.

Pros

Decent learning and development opportunities. Some really passionate and hard working people on your teams. Performance management is relaxed and flexible.

Cons

Benefits are wildly expensive for a company of their size. Was laid off with 1.5 months notice right before Christmas. Months prior to layoff was forced to use my PTO due to gov shutdown, but was still getting my full paycheck during shutdown. I believe this was so that they could diminish our PTO banks so they would have to pay out less when they laid us off. Laid off with zero severance despite being at company for almost 4 years and being in good standing. No efforts from management to make connections for a new internal role despite being strongly encouraged to search internally. New CEO Jim is not personable at all. Gives heavy corporate and cog in a machine vibes. Rumor has it that in the defense contracting industry, SAIC will be faring rather poorly within next 1-4 years.
